Benefit set Saturday for Lucas Golden

A benefit for 4-year-old Lucas Golden is planned for 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday at the Baker Building in Maury County Park.

Lucas was recently diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, a rare type of childhood cancer that affects infants and young children. Because of the size of the tumor which is wrapped around his main arteries, Lucas is considered high-risk and must undergo chemotherapy before the tumor can be removed. In the future, he will probably need a bone marrow transplant.

Medical bills are mounting, and the family doesn’t have much health insurance. Organizers of the benefit say that all help will be appreciated.

Activities throughout the day will include live music, an auction, cake walk, yard sale, bounce house for kids and concessions.

Performing will be Fallowfield, Righteous, Sierra and Maria, The White Family and others. The auction will begin at 2 p.m.
